we start with breaking news coming out of the state of california. the chaos they are erupting on the streets of los angeles, as anti-deportation protests are playing out for a second straight day. these are live images from an intersection close to los angeles. this is really south-east of the city where we've been seeing some very chaotic scenes in the past couple of hours. you can see in the middle of the intersection there, that is where we believe a car had been set on fire at one point. that's now been put out. as our camera zooms in, you can see not only a line of police or sheriff vehicles, but also that line-up of armed national guard members, potentially local officials, local sheriffs can see that as a sheriff vehicle, so those are county authorities on the scene. this has now really become a very heavily policed area. you don't see as many protesters or demonstrators as

you did earlier. there had been clashes with police, multiple arrests made, and we understand they have been calls made now for everyone to disperse. it looks as if many of those demonstrators were there in the streets, in that intersection, they seem to have left the scene for the most part. a very heavily policed area at this point. there are some cars there. looks like traffic being diverted from the scene as we take a look down now at street level. of course these demonstrations, these protests, they were sparked after really a blitz of federal immigration raids they are in and around los angeles. we have just heard from us president donald trump. he posted on his truth social social media platform, he wrote this, he said if gavin newscum, what is what he calls gavin it comes after california

governor gavin newsom hit back at some comments from donald trump's borders are holman, saying the initiation would quell the protests. the governor released the statement, he said as the federal government conducts chaotic immigration sweeps across the country, the state is deploying additional california state highway patrol to maintain safety on los angeles highways to keep the peace. it is not their job to assist in federal immigration enforcement. the federal government is sowing chaos so they can have an excuse to escalate. that is not the way any civilised country behaves. joining me live from los angeles is the bbc's 's regan morris. you are about as close as you can get to the action where you are. what are you seeing down there? it is really tense and chaotic, although a bit more calm than it was a few hours ago. behind me there are

the dozens of federal agent cars, unmarked cars leaving. we had a sheriff's police line behind us, and there are still protesters out there. it is not as chaotic as was earlier. but there are still two kids on motorbikes, and they are shooting flashbangs at them, rubber bullets, and you can taste the tear gas. it is still kind of lingering in the air. i am right at the home depot across from it where it all started. there are reports that workers are being detained from the home depot. it is where a lot of many of the undocumented workers go to try to get a day's work and 's pay, and there were reports locally that ice agents were there arresting people. huge numbers of people came to protest. at one stage they were standing in front of an ice bus that reportedly had detainees on it, they were trying to stop the bus as it tried to get onto the freeway, and it's just really chaotic.

they are moving this line right now, i'm not exactly sure why but the police line is moving away from the protest. there is another line up here where we just heard flashbangs going off a few seconds ago, and the streets are just littered with tear gas canisters and rocks and rubber bullet canisters. it's pretty intense. yes, it seems like a much quieter scene, still definitely though an intense moment. we have also heard about besides just the clashes in the streets between protesters and authorities, there also seems to be this clash between federal authorities and california and local politicians. we just heard that statement from president trump playing in just moments ago. yes, it is very complicated, because the national guard, which is normally called up by the governor of the state, is being sent in by the federal government apparently. we have had reports that 2000 national guard troops are on their way to california to mobilise,

either tonight or tomorrow at some stage. governor gavin newsom has said this is ridiculous, this is not necessary, we have it under control, law enforcement here can handle this. local and federal troops can handle this and it is not necessary. so it is unclear when they are being called up, if that's happening, but that sure seems to be what the trump administration is saying, that the national guard is going to be on the streets of los angeles. only about 40 seconds left here, but you mentioned this briefly, what more can you tell us, help us understand how these demonstrations began? it was because of immigration enforcement taking place around los angeles? yes, that's right. i mean, they have been raids happening across the country, and in los angeles, over the last few days, and the local community and active -- activist communities really came out in force to oppose it. there are conflicting reports whether people were actually detained at the home depot. the sheriff of los angeles said that was not the case, that

they were just using the area as a staging ground for another raid later. i have heard from some locals say that there might be migrants and some of the nearby companies locked in, afraid to come out, and their employees are not letting them in. -- their employers. there are so many different stories about what is happening that people are very afraid. and while i have you, los angeles is one of several cities across the country that have called themselves sanctuary cities. what exactly does that mean, and how does that affect these kinds of immigration enforcement operations carried out by federal officials? means it local law enforcement are not supposed to co-operate with federal officials when it comes to immigration raids. the last few days this is la officials out on the street so it does upset a lot of people in the community and that's why you have the mayor of los angeles coming out and saying this will not stand, we can't

terrorise the people in our streets. the state status of california is reporting price on the scent of those demonstrations, thank. we got in the last hour or so coming from, that town very close to los angeles saying protesting will, their voices have, she also says our priority mission right now is to stabilise the city right now that the situation is stabilised. we will bring ukraine says a 30-year-old woman has been killed during a sustained russian attack on kharkiv.she was reported to be in a park popular with families.

president zelensky says kharkiv - ukraine's second-largest city - has been under russian bombardment for nearly 24 hours straight. in that time frame, at least 4 people have been killed and 39 others injured, including an infant. kharkiv's mayor said that friday's attack was the largest of the war. president trump has warned russia would inevitably ramp up its attacks, after ukraine launched a stealthy and devastating assault on a russian airbase. paul adams reports from kyiv. not the deadliest attack on kharkiv but certainly one of the most intense. drones, bombs and missiles. loud blast. bringing fear and death over the course of just 90 minutes. russia's target is not known, but apartment blocks and private homes amongst the buildings hit. civilians paying a high price in a city that has already suffered more than most. irina says she found her wounded daughter in a room full of rubble and dust. "they carried her out on a stretcher," she says. "her arms and legs seemed ok."

the blast blew out this woman's windows. translation: when the drones started buzzing closer and closer, when the sound was right over our house, we took the pets and hid behind the wall in the corridor, and then it hit. sitting so close to russia, kharkiv has often taken the brunt of moscow's anger, but is this revenge for what ukraine did a week ago? today, fresh images from operation spidersweb - a single drone's journey, fast and low, in search of a target amid the flaming wreckage at a russian airbase. donald trump clearly thinks the russian leader was provoked. they gave putin a reason to go and bomb the hell out of them last night, after... when i saw it, i said, "here we go." it's this kind of talk that frustrates ukrainians. they're still waiting for any sign that donald trump is willing to put pressure on vladimir putin, rather than always appearing to take his side. they roll their eyes at the suggestion that, somehow, moscow is retaliating.

translation: no matter what anyone says, these russian attacks are not retaliatory. they are intended for destruction, complete destruction of life - that is their goal. this evening in kharkiv, more bombs and more bloodshed. a 30-year-old woman killed in a park popular with families. president zelensky calling it another brutal murder. paul adams, bbc news, kyiv. joining me live now is steven pifer, former us ambassador to ukraine, and an affiliate of stanford university's center for international security and cooperation. following ms lanskey saying don't call this revenge this isn't necessarily i think the president is correct conducting his extracts on ukrainian cities for more made up a

little bit and that may reflect russian frustration about ukraine's attack against russian bombers a but there is literary targets, these bombers and firing rockets and drones we don't know what was targeted necessarily, we do know what was hit by russia, we are, i believe 18 apartment blocks. there was mention. is there a military purpose there? what are the attacks designed if the russians are going to conduct strikes in the cities hit specific targets and what you see as we see in the past they civilian buildings or they this may be a terror campaign this is certainly against will this

get donald trump like he said on thursday that they may be better off continuing to fight and is that this dance to let them keep fighting for it has been for months and donald restriction with russia continuing to conduct these kinds of tweeted don't say this anymore but he has never taken as long as he doesn't use that where does the administration there was clearly a moment a

with that boiling up with that post on social media a stretch and willing to stand by if you want to bring a change he can longer and we can work to move assets and put them into a fund for ukraine. you can vladimir putin with the fact that if he, military are only for four months now donald trump has done none he looks at jump and says this guy the words don't

have an impact as long as there is that large package of sanctions that people say is ready senator lindsey graham. we will see if that ends up being stephen thank having me. we're following a devleoping story out of colombia, where local media repotrs a gunman shot and injured conservative presidential hopeful miguel uribe in the capital, bogota. mr uribe, a senator seeking the presidential nomination of the right-wing centro democratico party for the upcoming may 2026 presidential election, was shot while attending a political event in the neighbourhood of modelia. local media says there is still little information on the severity of the injuries he suffered during the attack, but he has been taken to a nearby hospital. we will continue to track that

story for you here on bbc news as well. the us-backed aid distribution centre in the southern gaza strip says it's been unable to distribute aid on saturday, following direct threats from hamas. earlier, gaza's civil defense agency said six palestinians were killed and several wounded by israeli gunfire while gathering to collect food supplies. the israeli military said it fired warning shots at suspects who approached them in a "threatening manner". earlier, israel anounced it had recovered the body of a thai hostage who'd been held in gaza since hamas' terror attack on october 7. mr pinta was an agricultural worker in southern israel when he was kidnapped. the israel defence forces said his body had been retrieved during a special operation. our correspondent barbara plett usher has more from jerusalem on the body of the thai national being recovered. according to israeli defense forces he was kidnapped right next to the gaza border and

kidnapped alive and they thought he probably did not survive long and they estimate you may have been killed in captivity in the early months after he was taken. that said he was an agricultural worker who was working at the kibbutz. he has a wife and a young son. and so they were able to determine where his body was by gathering intelligence over time with various intelligence agencies and they said they were able to launch the operation at this precise location because of an interrogation of a what they called captured tariffs. they found his body and the thai government have notified the family. the bbc did reach out to the wife but she did not respond to the call. she texted us a picture of his little son crying. terrible news for her having to process that now but

this is the third body of a hostage or an israeli captive recovered in the past week by the israel defence forces in gaza. joining me live now is mara rudman, who formerly served as deputy special envoy for middle east peace at the u.s. state department. another deadly shooting near a gaza humanitarian foundation distribution site involving idf military. what's you reaction and what needs to change to prevent more death at these aid sites? i appreciate the opportunity to talk to you about this. we are seeing tragedy after tragedy unfold at this point in gaza and in the region. sadly i am not surprised at the chaos and violence and deaths that have

surrounded the rollout of these gaza humanitarian foundation. it was put together by people who do not have the necessary expertise. it is showing just how difficult it is to operate on the ground in gaza. it is difficult to distribute humanitarian aid that when there is not an ongoing conflict and it is extraordinarily difficult in the current situation and if there are all sorts of problems in how the gaza humanitarian foundation was set up even as humanitarian aid is so desperately needed in gaza. the foundation said it did not open its distribution sites because of direct threats by hamas. this is something israel has been saying, that hamas has been taking eight away from the people who need it. what do you make of that and i guess the question is this was meant to be a method that we prevent aid from making it. -- aid. it is likely that hamas has

threatened and made it difficult to distribute aid in the past and to ensure the hamas leadership gets first dips in assent and has the food and assistance they need and also it is in the interests of hamas leaders, frankly, who do not care about the many, many innocent civilians in gaza, many, many innocent palestinians. so i do believe part of their intent is to make it as difficult as possible to get humanitarian assistance to people. i believe that israeli assertions about their attempts and efforts to do that with this latest israeli effort are also not surprising are a part of what should have been taken into account. it is almost impossible to have zero interference from hamas and you have to bake that into a gradual but not a reason to

stop aid going on. 15 people killed including the head of a palestinian militant group. of a palestinian militant group known as the muja-hideen brigades. how significant is that? it is important i think to remove those who have been perpetrators of such evil. both again on palestinians in gaza as well as on israelis and those who were working in or near kibbutz on october seven. the way the conflict has continued to be persecuted by the leaders of israel is also deeply problematic and it is part of the reason so many defence and security officials in israel have spoken out, in some cases publicly, in some

cases very strongly privately, registering their concern about how prime minister benjamin netanyahu is continuing to lead this effort and is controlled by two very far right extremists. these are extreme ideological position that many people see is not showing any kind of real long-term strategy for israel, frankly, or for those who live in gaza and the west bank or what happens in gaza going forward. i was great to get your thoughts. thank you very much. thank you. elon musk has deleted a tweet in which he'd claimed - without evidence - that donald trump was named in unreleased files, linked to the late billionaire sex offender jeffrey epstein. some are taking it

as a sign that musk is backing down after the public feud earlier in the week. our north america correpondent jake kwon has more just when we thought the very public and ugly breakup between elon musk and donald trump was taking a break, president trump has issued a fresh warning against the tech billionaire, saying elon musk has disrespected the office of the present and that he will face grave, very serious consequences if he funds democrats to run against his big built. it considers the relationship over. the reason we're watching these two men closely is because they can really do damage to each other. musk is a billionaire who has almost limitless amount of fun he can direct towards mr trump is a component and we saw some conservative republicans are ready seizing this opportunity to voice their disagreement with mr trump and say they do not want this big spending

bill. mr trump, who holds the congress by a razor thin margin and has the midterms elections coming up next year, this disagreement can be a real thorn in his side. let's turn to some other important news around the world. a fast-spreading cholera outbreak has hit sudan with officials reporting more than 1,000 cases a day in the capital of the country in the midst of the ongoing war there. more than 150,000 people have been killed during sudan's conflict, which began over two years ago. the cholera outbreak is centered around the capital, khartoum, and has spread, as many sudanese who had fled the country's war return home. the brazilian authorities have blamed a record number of fires for a rise in deforestation in the past year. the overall increase nationwide was 9%. the losses were particularly severe in the amazon last month. brazil's government said many were started deliberately to clear land for agriculture. president inacio lula da silva has promised to halt

deforestation by the end of the decade. lets return now to our top story now out of los angeles, where there have been clashes between protesters and border immigration officers after dozens of people were arrested in immigration raids. you can see the aerial view where the protest had been raging a couple of hours ago. now, a different scene. you still do see the massive security presence in the street, it does look like some traffic has returned. that looks to be a car set on fire in the middle of the intersection. i want to read your statement coming from karoline leavitt saying president trump has signed a presidential memorandum deploying 2000 national guardsmen to address the lawlessness allowed to fester. the trump administration has a zero tolerance policy for criminal behaviour and violence especially when it is aimed at law enforcement officers trying

to do the job. these criminals will be arrested and swiftly brought to justice. the commander in chief will ensure the laws

hello and welcome to another edition of unspun world here in the central london headquarters of the bbc. how damaging will the election of a right-wing president be to the government in poland now? donald tusk is facing a very difficult time. some people would go as far to say, john, that he's going to be a lame duck. what are likely to be

the long-term effects on sudan
